OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Comment by Steph_Proud navy wife & momma =) on October 24, 2010 at 8:49pm: My husband went to pensacola for a school. It just depends on when he gets there. My husband had liberty all weekend. But were at his duty station now. They actually had a cookout the first week he was there, so he was able to hangout at the beach and swim in the ocean for the first time.
